THE FIRST VOLUME IN THE EPIC DARK TOWER SERIES INTRODUCES READERS TO ONE OF STEPHEN KING'S MOST POWERFUL CREATIONS AND ENIGMATIC HEROES, ROLAND OF GILEAD: THE LAST GUNSLINGER.
OVER THREE DECADES AGO, Stephen King introduced readers to the extraordinarily compelling and mysterious Roland Deschain. Roland is a haunting figure, a loner on a spellbinding journey into good and evil. In his desolate world, a landscape strewn with the wreckage of civility, he tracks the man in black, encounters an enticing woman named Alice, and begins a friendship with a boy from New York named Jake. Both fiercely realistic and eerily dreamlike, The Gunslinger is the first book in what is perhaps the greatest odyssey Stephen King has ever written.
